  I'll Wear It Proudly

  Elvis Costello

    D

  I hate these flaming curtains 

                  A

  They're not the color of your hair

    G

  I hate these striplights 

                   D

  They're not so undoing as your stare

     D

  I hate the buttons on your shirt 

                           G

  When all I want to do is tear

  G

  I hate this bloody big bed of mine 

                  A

  When you're not here

   

         D                 D/C#           Bm     G

  Well I finally found someone to turn me upside down

      D               F#m                  A

  And nail my feet up where my head should be

          D             D/C#               Bm        G

  If they had a King of Fools then I could wear that crown

      D

  And you can all die laughing

      F#m          D

  Cos I'll wear it proudly

  Well you semm to be shivering dear

  And the room is awfully warm

  In the white and scarlet billows

  That subside beyond the storm

  You have this expression dear

  No words could take its place

  And I wear it like a badge

  That you put all over my face

   

  Chorus

  A

  I'll wear it proudly

              G             D

  Through the dives and the dancehalls

     A 

  If you'll wear it proudly

              G             D

  Through the snakepits and catcalls

         A            G

  Like a fifteen year old kid

          D       Bm

  Wears a vampire kiss

     G

  If you don't know what is wrong with me

                                  A

  Then you don't know what you've missed

   

   

  We are arms and legs

  Wrapped round more than my memory tonight

  When the bell rang out

  And the air turned blue from fright

  But in shameless moments

  You made more of me than just a mess

  And a handful of eagerness

  Says "What do you suggest?"

   

  Chorus
